Magic Moves Electronic Wand by Educational Insights Review!

Have you heard about the Magic Moves Electronic Wand?
It is a hand held light weight wand with 90 voice commands, glowing light shows, and 26 musical features. The Magic Moves Wand helps promote gross motor skills, physical activity, and imaginative movement. Along with those great features, it also helps strengthen listening skills, vocabulary, and encourages kids to follow directions. They can play with it by themselves or share with a group.

Well let me tell you just how awesome this learning toy is. I received the Magic Moves Electronic Wand really not knowing what to expect. With my daughter having Autism, interacting with others is still a work in progress. Along with communication. When she first saw it, right away she was interested. I then pressed Play and proceeded to "Stomp like a Dinosaur" just as the wand said to as it glowed in it's bright colors. Then I hit "Repeat" and she stomped with me. She even "Rawred" like a dinosaur. That tickled me pink! This went on and on as we went through the different commands. She was doing back and forth play. The next time the wand was to be played with it was by her doing. Next thing I know she's "Swooping like an Eagle" with the wand in her hand ready to play. The way this wand is designed I couldn't be more pleased. She is also 4 and all children at that age are like sponges absorbing their surroundings. To find a learning tool that she actually gets positively absorbed in, is a blessing. It has so many ways for your kiddo to be active, creative, learn, and have fun all at the same time. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a fun educational toy. You might just be pleasantly surprised just like I was. It even came with batteries in it with a pull-tab! A relief for any parent that either doesn't have any on hand or needs to get that toy working fast. Take it one the go, play inside or outside, use at a party, and even use in the dark.

We got this for our son who also has Autism. Every educational toy we buy is to help pull him out of his own world and into ours. Help him share his voice and personality. This toy is more like a tool as you said. We had never seen him interact the way he does with the wand. I know lots of toys are fun but this one is special. Something about it is Magic. Thank you for sharing this review, I feel that this tool/toy can help many kids and recommend it to all my friends.

Just ordered one for my 2 kiddos to share. My youngest daughter has Autism and I think this would be a great way for her to interact with her sister. I'm looking forward to seeing how they do. BYW, the 2 day shipping included is marvelous, THANKS for posting.
